Anarchy in Chicago

CHICAGO, Nov. 16.-Armed guards keep
watch day and night over the vault in the
Waldheim cemetery where the bodies of
Spies, Parsons, Engel, Lingg and Fischer
are now resting. They are in the employ
Of the defense committee and the intention
Is to maintain the guard until q permanent
burial place has been secured. Friends Of
the executed men are generally in favor Of
purchasing land adjacent to the city and
improving it for the purpose From the
character of the crowds that congregate in
the old time haunts Of the anarchists and
from the tone of their conversation, anyone
not thoroughly posted would be led to sup
pose that the entire brood Of anarchists
had suddenly become extinct. Sundays
parade was revelation that there were
scores and hundreds Of anarchists in that
parade who have not shown themselves
upon the streets or in public places since
the night Of the haymarket crime. There
is every reason to believe that several
Of the old time groups have survived the
shock.

Dubuque Makes Rather an Awkward At
tempt to Become Prominent.
DUBUQUE, Ia, Nov. ia bomb was ex-
ploded in the Iowa Iron works in this city
at late hour last night. The works are
running night force and of them some
twenty were employed on large boiler in
the boiler shop. They were startled by
sudden explosion about twenty feet away
on the other side OF the boiler. It made a
terrible noise and was heard in many parts
Of the city. The bomb which was picked
up was made of inch and a half gas pipe
about two feet long. One end was still in
tact, plugged up, with a cap and a hole in
the pipe near it for fuse. The pipe was
split in several pieces. Fortunately the
explosion was all in one direction, away
from the men. The flooring and parts Of
the building were set on fire, but the fire
was speedily extinguished by the men. No
other damage was done. 1t was a miracle
that there was not great loss of life. It
is supposed the bomb was thrown through
an open window. The works here have
had no trouble at all with their men,
but have been running double force for
nine months. A theory is that the bomb
was prepared by some one having grudge
against the wOrkmen or else an out and
out anarchist. 1t was filled either with
dynamite or gun cotton. The bomb is now
in possession of the city police department
and the anarchist is being hunted for.

Allison for the Sacrifice, Iowa Democratic
and Grover for President.
WASHINGTON, Nov. Is. Congressman Nc
Donald Of Minnesota says: "Iowa is no
longer safe republican state. In the best
view that the republicans can take of it,
it is very uncertain. There is little doubt
that the republican candidate for the pres
idency next year will be Senator Allison
of Iowa, who is the man that Mr.. Blaine
would select if he were asked to name the
republican nominee, and it looks now. as
If Cleveland would carry Iowa in 1888
against any republican candidate, even Al
lison. There is no mistake but that the
democrats are On top and the republicans
are falling farther and farther behind
every year"

A Victory for English AgItators.

LONDON, Nov. 17.--Willam Saunders, ex-
member of parliament, who was arrested
last week while addressing a crowd in
Trafalgar square, was arraigned in court
to-day. He was charged with disorderly
conduct in speaking in Trafalgar square
and thereby causing disorderly assem-
blage. He was also charged with obstruct-
ing the public thoroughfare. The crown
counsel admitted that the charges were un-
statutory and required that they be dis
missed. Mr.. Saunders insisted on con-
viction. The magistrate, however, dis
missed the charges on the ground that q
Warren, the police superintendent, did
not form statutory offence. The radicals
are jubilant over the result Of the arrest
and may possibly revoke their decision not
to meet in Trafalgar square on Sunday.
